Herbal CSA







Hello and welcome to Herbal Revolution and the CSA Break Down

Herbal Revolution is based in beautiful mid-coast Maine where I wild gather herbs in a sustainable way from the salty coast, fields and forests. I organically raise herbs in my garden and utilize other local organically raised herbs when needed.

Herbal Revolution products are made in small batches to ensure the integrity and quality of the herbs that are being used. Every step in the process is taken with great care and respect infusing the herbs and the products with positive intentions and love.

I would like to mention that if you have any questions about the products and what they are or how to use them please feel free to contact me at herbalrevolution@hotmail.com
also a few of the products that I offer can be found at
www.theherbalrevolution.etsy.com
so you can get an idea of what the products look like the ingredients and how they are used.

All of the products that I make are either made with herbs I grow organically,
ethically wild gather or purchase from another organic herb farm...I try to stay as
local as I can. I use local raw unfiltered Swan's honey from Maine for the Elixirs
and Sewall's Orchard Organic Apple Cider for the Herbal Ciders and Herbal Hair Rinse
along with using Organic Grape Alcohol for the tinctures.

I will be accepting Memberships till May 20th so sign up now.

Break Down of CSA Shares

The shares will run from June-Oct and there will be a pick up once a month in Belfast at the Friday Farmer's Market 9-1. Other arrangements can be made for those that cannot make it to Belfast on Fridays. I will also consider drop offs in Camden and Rockland if there is enough interest.

I will be accepting mail order members. Mail order members will receive everything except for the plants or any fresh edible flowers or herbs.

The share cost is based on a sliding scale of $200-$260. For those that would like a payment plan contact me so we can work something out. All shares will need to be paid in full by the time of the first share pick-up or before the mail order shares can be sent.
